Hello,

According to the package deprecation policy [1], I am planning to deprecate
the atlas package during the next week.
The upstream of Atlas has been inactive since 2018, with the last stable
release dating back to 2016; the project can be considered abandoned.
I am also planning to orphan the package sometime after F46 branching. If
anyone is interested in maintaining the package, feel free to message me.

The only package that (Build)Required Atlas -- flexiblas -- has already
been updated to remove the dependency [3]. There is also one package that
Recommends atlas (xnec2c) [4]; however, since weak dependencies do not
prevent the dependent package from functioning, I suppose FESCo approval is
not required? I have notified the xnec2c maintainer regardless.

Thanks,
Jakub
